Global primary energy consumption and global CO2 emission
The figure on the left shows historical consumption from 1900 to 2009 and the GEA scenario’s projections for the period 2010 to 2050. The figure on the right shows global carbon dioxide emissions, both historical since 1860 and projected. The projections are based on one of three illustrative GEA pathways that were interpreted by two different modelling frameworks: IMAGE and MESSAGE. This figure shows IMAGE modelling results (IMAGE - GEA_med_450).
